It is translating "ring" into the katakana "ringu" (just like the American movie "The Ring" was a remake of "Ringu"). But there is a Japanese word for "ring" that is written in hiragana as "yubiwa" (assuming you're talking about a ring worn on the finger). I don't know what the difference is between these two words or if one of them would sound funny in this context to a Japanese ear. Better check with a native speaker to see if one is preferred over the other.

Ironic and amusing request, marky, as I'm sure many orgers (incorrectly) assume your 'markatisu' name indicates Japanese heritage rather than signifying Mark at Iowa State University.

Yup lots of people think my name has some kind of asian influence when it literally is mark at isu

In this case Ring means wrestling Ring so whatever form of ring that is

EDIT: Ok. according to her it translates to : Mysterious Warrior in Ring.

Could you ask her what the proper translation would be for Mystical Warriors of the Ring?

Thanks!!
